Working with the Graphical Display

In the StreamBrowser graphical display, each box represents one stream in the current depot. The root stream is always shown. It is displayed on the left by default, and all child streams flow to it, right-to-left, as shown here:

You can change the StreamBrowser flow display to read from left-to-right using the Flow option on the search options panel. See Filtering the StreamBrowser Display for more information.

Streams are aligned by column and are sized to accommodate the longest stream name in a column.

Hierarchical relationships between streams are shown with connecting lines, and arrows indicate the direction of the stream flow to the root stream. Streams that are not directly related to other stream results are considered floating (or orphan) streams. Floating streams show no connecting lines. Instead, they are grouped at the bottom of the display, which is otherwise organized alphabetically.
